Modern cancer treatments have allowed patients with the most serious forms of the disease to live for periods of time that, in centuries past, were scarcely imaginable. Since the 1950s, diseases like prostate cancer and even lung cancer have become not just fightable but beatable. Initially, these incredible gains in the fight against cancer were attributable primarily to the three main types of cancer treatment that took hold since the 1940s. These were radiation, chemotherapy and surgery. Unfortunately, all of these treatments had horrible side effects, including permanent disability and even death from the treatment itself.

It was the horrible side effects themselves that led to the search for new and more tolerable forms of cancer treatment that would retain or even improve upon the effectiveness of the old treatments. Throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, a new kind of cancer treatment began to take hold. This was known as targeted cancer therapy, a class of drugs that targets the cancer cells individually, leading to the reduction or elimination of many of the terrible side effects associated with such treatment as chemotherapy and radiation.

One of the key figures in the development of targeted cancer therapy has been Clay Siegall. As a researcher for the National Cancer Institute for more than four years and for Bristol-Myers Squibb for almost an entire decade, Dr. Siegall has worked on some of the most cutting-edge targeted cancer treatments in the world today. He was one of the first to begin synthesizing a viable treatment in the form of antibody drug conjugates, a technology that uses human antibodies or synthetic antibodies to deliver a highly lethal cytotoxin directly to the surface of the tumor. This ability to only release the cytotoxin on contact with a malignant tissue virtually eliminates the systemic release of the chemotherapeutic agent into the bloodstream. In theory, this has the capability of completely eliminating all side effects from the treatment.

In 1998, Dr. Siegall went on to found his own company, Seattle Genetics, which was solely dedicated to the development of new forms of antibody drug conjugates. Throughout the 2000’s, Dr. Siegall began zeroing in on a particular form of antibody drug conjugate that would treat a form of cancer, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, that had not seen significant improvement over the prior decades.

The resultant drug was ADCetris. Today, ADCetris saves thousands of lives every year.

Archives: The Epic Rise of Eric Pulier

Eric Pulier started off his career in technology by moving to Los Angeles back in 1992. Upon landing in California, Pulier made it immediately clear that his goal was to become an entrepreneur who pushed the limits, stretched the boundaries, and made fundamental difference in the lives of the people he would go on to work with. Since then Pulier has become one of the leading tech innovators and investors in Los Angeles, founding over 15 companies while raising millions of dollars for his work along the way. Right now Pulier is focused on his newest project, a micro transaction based company called vAtomic Systems.

Eric Pulier has always been something of a wunderkind in relation to technology. From a young age it seemed pretty evident that all Pulier wanted to do was work with technology, work with computers, and develop solutions to problems he found along the way. Growing up in New Jersey Pulier would spend the majority of his free time learning how to program. By the time he graduated high school he would have gone on to establish his own unique computer database company. Keep in mind that Pulier graduated in 1984, well before the tech boom that we know about today.

As an entrepreneur his goal has always been to look for market trends in order to find a way to capitalize upon marketplace. Pulier looks at disruptive technology as an event of convenience that offers him the ability to dig deep and find a new way to do something interesting. You can look at how Uber took advantage of GPS wired smart-phones, Google Maps, and the cheap cost of cloud computing. In this same vein we saw Pulier come up with what we now know of as vAtomic Systems. Looking for opportunity within disruptive technology is an easy way to get ahead of the rest of the people you are competing against.

Though he is an avid investor and entrepreneur, Pulier is also someone uniquely focused on helping others. Pulier has worked hand in hand with various philanthropic foundations to help bring aid and funding to children who suffer from chronic illness — such as the Painted Turtle summer camp.
